We are thrilled to announce that our recent achievement has caught the attention of the local press! Kent Online recently published a feature on Leigh Academy Molehill, highlighting our school’s incredible evolution and our most recent inspection results.
A Decade of Growth
The article reflects on how far we have come since 2013. It’s been an eleven-year journey of dedication and hard work. Since becoming part of the Leigh Academies Trust in 2015, our mission has been to provide a world-class education for the Maidstone community. Moving from a challenging historical position to being recognized as “Outstanding” in every single category is a milestone we are all incredibly proud of.
What Makes Us Stand Out?
The press coverage focused on several key areas that make our school community special:
-
Inclusive Excellence: The report highlighted how we ensure every child, particularly those with additional needs, can participate fully and succeed at the highest levels.
-
A Bold Curriculum: Our approach to learning was noted for being both creative and demanding, pushing our pupils to reach their full potential.
-
Student Conduct: We were commended for the respectful, kind, and positive atmosphere our students create every day.
A Community Win
Our leadership team shared their pride in the “phenomenal” turnaround the school has seen. This wasn’t just a win for the staff—it’s a testament to the students’ hard work and the unwavering support of our families. As our Principal, Laura Smith, noted, our primary goal remains opening doors for our pupils and giving them the tools to build a bright future.
We want to extend a huge “thank you” to everyone who has been part of this journey. You can find the full story on the Kent Online by clicking the button below.
